8 / 10Excellent·Jun 2026
The property was nice, in a great location. The rustic cottage vibes were fun, the only down fall was circulation of air and the towels provided smelled of bleach.

Only downside was the bed wasn’t comfortable. Besides that it was cozy and clean. Good spot.

6 / 10Average·Jan 2025
The cabin was lovely and clean. However we were cold, even with the heat running a lot. Lots of cold coming in through the doors.There was a blackout for a few hours on the second day, which did not help the situation. We understand that is not the owner fault. But when we realized after the electricity was restored, that we had no hot water to shower, we were offered no solution by the manager. We paid a lot of money for this rental and don't feel like we got the value for what we paid. I would not go back.
